Lyrics

I want to do more

I desire to accomplish more.

Without spending the time

Without using up time.

I want to love more

I want to experience more love.

Without my heart on the line

Without risking my heart.

Because every time I get lost

Every time I feel lost,

I think of you and I feel

I think of you and find solace.

I want to be more

I aspire to be more.

But what for?

Questioning the purpose of improvement.

What for?

Reiterating the question of purpose.

All good things seem better

Positive experiences seem better as they fade.

The more they start to fade

Reflecting on the tendency of good things to diminish.

The more it seems I messed up

Admitting mistakes as positive experiences diminish.

And the more I wish you'd stayed

Expressing a wish for the person to stay despite mistakes.


But the garden grass we lied on left some green stains on my heart

Memories of lying on garden grass with emotional stains.

And sleeping in with you just left me tired of waking up

Feelings of exhaustion from spending time with the person.

And I know we were spending borrowed time but I don't mind

Acknowledging that the time spent together was borrowed.

No I don't mind

Expressing acceptance of borrowed time.

No I don't mind

Reiteration of acceptance.

I don't mind

Emphasizing the acceptance of borrowed time.


Nothing was ever wrong

Denial of any problems in the past.

Maybe that's the problem

Suggesting that the absence of problems might be an issue.

Nothing was ever going on

Claiming that nothing significant was happening.

Maybe it's the boredom

Considering boredom as a potential problem.

It's like waiting for a train to come

Using a metaphor of waiting for a train without direction.

Only to realise

Realizing uncertainty about the destination.

You didn't know where you were going

Reflecting on not knowing where life is headed.

And you were waiting for the wrong one

Waiting for the wrong path in life.

You were waiting for the wrong one

Repetition emphasizing waiting for the wrong path.


But the garden grass we lied on left some green stains on my heart

Recalling emotional stains from lying on garden grass.

And sleeping in with you just left me tired of waking up

Expressing weariness from spending time with the person.

And I know we were spending borrowed time but I don't mind

Acknowledging the awareness of borrowed time without resistance.

No I don't mind

Reiterating the lack of resistance to borrowed time.

No I don't mind

Emphasizing acceptance of borrowed time.

I don't mind
